Re:What the Industrial Revolution Tells Us about the Future ... by im2nguyen on Wednesday September 06, 2017 @03:17AM (#15181786)
What I find interesting is that the second paragraph starts with:

>They point to how past major transformations in work tasks and labor markets – specifically the Industrial Revolution during the 18th and 19th centuries – did not lead to major social upheaval or widespread suffering.

Which is then followed by this in the 4th paragraph:

>The aftermath of the Industrial Revolution involved two major Communist revolutions, whose death toll approaches 100 million.
